Editor’s note: The following is a story of Encounter and Accompaniment from “CM” shared by Bishop Frank J. Caggiano in his weekly “The One” newsletter. To subscribe to this newsletter, click here.
About ten years ago, some of us felt called to pray the chaplet of Divine Mercy on Fridays. We started out slowly, but the little group has been faithful. We have grown together in our love for Jesus and His mother, as well as our fondness for each other. We have experienced many answered prayers and shared the blessings we have faced with each other.
Through the years, four of our members have passed on into His Mercy.
This year we have been blessed by being assigned, as a parochial vicar to our parish, a holy priest who loves St. Faustina and St. John Paul ll. Now, in addition to our prayer group we have a Eucharistic Holy Hour every Friday at 3 pm with Benediction and Confession.
We recently added a first Friday Mass following the holy hour. God continues to bless us with the people He moves in and out of our lives.
God has rewarded our faithfulness by adding blessing upon blessing and grace upon grace. We are so grateful!
